The correct order during a lunar eclipse is penumbral phase, partial phase, and then total phase. During a total lunar eclipse, the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, casting its shadow on the Moon.
Sun, Earth, Moon. The moon is covered by the Earth's shadow.
During a new moon phase, when the moon passes between the earth and the sun, a solar eclipse occurs. The moon blocks the sunlight from reaching the earth, casting a shadow on a portion of the earth's surface.
* When Earth is at periapsis (closest to the Sun, in January), Earth, and therefore the Moon, are closer to the Sun than when Earth is at apapsis. * On average, at new moon the Moon is closer to the Sun than at full moon, since at full moon the Moon is opposite to the Sun in the sky.
The moon is the smallest out of the Sun,Earth and moon. It should be note, though, that neither the sun nor the moon are planets; the sun is a star and the moon is a natural satellite.

The correct order during a lunar eclipse is penumbral phase, partial phase, and then total phase. During a total lunar eclipse, the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, casting its shadow on the Moon.
Because the sun, the Earth, and the Moon align in the following order: Sun, Earth, Moon.
There is no 'phrase' or mnemonic for this because the order of the Sun, Earth and Moon changes as the Moon orbits the Earth. Remember - planets obit a star (the Sun is a star) - Earth is a planet moons orbit planets - The Moon is a moon.
The correct order from largest to smallest would be: the Sun, Jupiter, Earth, and the Moon. The Sun is the largest object in our solar system, followed by Jupiter, which is the largest planet. Earth is the third largest object in this list, and the Moon is the smallest of the four.
The order from closest to farthest from the sun is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto (which is now considered a dwarf planet). The moon is not included in this list as it orbits the Earth, not the sun.

IO is a moon of Jupiter. Jupiter is the 5th planet from the Sun.
When the sun, moon, and Earth are in a line, it creates either a lunar or solar eclipse, depending on the position of the moon. During a lunar eclipse, the Earth is between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow on the moon. During a solar eclipse, the moon is between the sun and the Earth, blocking the sunlight from reaching the Earth.
